Hardship: A condition that is difficult to endure; suffering; deprivation; oppression.How are things when it comes to hardship in your life? We may not be deprived of our basic human rights, tortured or killed for our faith like our persecuted family, be we also experience difficulties.When we go through difficulties, whether persecuted or not, we may sometimes find ourselves wondering whether God loves us. Surely, if He loves us, then we wouldn’t face such troubles?But hardships aren’t evidence of Christ’s love for us. Rather God uses hardship to make us more like Himself.Now when it comes to whether He loves us, we can rest assured that He does even in our trials.When Paul asks the question, “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble our hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?”He then says, “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:37-39)May you be encouraged in knowing that nothing can separate you from the love of God. -- source link
